GuidStringConverter Class

Definition of the GuidStringConverter. This converter uses 'Guid' as its core type and converts the Guid to and from a string (char(32)). It uses Guid.ToString("N"), which results in 32 continous digits without any separators/wrappers.

Remarks

This type converter is only capable of converting values, it's not usable for defining type conversions in the LLBLGen Pro designer, instead use the equivalent shipped with the designer for that.

Accepted types are: string.
